Really think it depends on the area and the sector of the market....
I live in Bath (which is very popular with the second home market etc too) and the top of the market (large family homes upwards) has lept up recently by 10%+ between Feb and May... At the beginning of the year there were quite a few properties marketed in the region of £825/£875k were SNAPPED up and now similar properties are marketed at £925/£950/£995k and still getting snapped up (normally before the details get onto Rightmove...).

Houses over a miilion pounds suffer the new 5% stamp duty rate next year. So there's more than likely some movement ahead of that change with properties close to the threshold, both just below and above.0
